I already flagged this problem on Facebook yesterday, but Tim asked me to move it to the forum.

The Facebook message read >> How to create cool glitch music in Mixtikl - viewtopic.php?f=65&t=1321. C.V.Gates has created a fabulous example of this ('Slapntikl' (http://bit.ly/paIt8l)) and has also kindly posted details on how it was done. This amply illustrates how you can do very different things in Mixtikl by tapping into custom editing of Partikl sounds and Noatikl generators, and it can all be tweeted, too! <<

I reset Firefox to open in 32-bit mode, as advised, but the window under 'Mixtikl Web Player' in http://bit.ly/paIt8l still said I needed 'a plug-in to display this content'. Clicking on the link returned the message 'no plug-in available'. I'm running Firefox on Mac OSX 10.6.8, and I have the desktop version of Mixtikl installed.

OK, so you are not on OS 10.7 (Lion), which means it can't be anything to do with that.

So, first things first:Could you please check what version of Mixtikl you have installed and if it is not 4.0.0.3 (the latest), please install that one (on the desktop version you can see the version number on the load screen, or in Menu > Quick Help > About Mixtikl)?

OK, that sounds very strange . I have just again double checked with Firefox and it works fine. What version of Firefox are you using btw?

Could you also try maybe with Safari or Chrome? Both of those should work to play a mix, but there could be a display issue with it just showing a grey panel (we will be trying to fix that one at some point).

One last suggestion. Could you try removing the 3 Mixtikl plugins (as here: http://www.intermorphic.com/tools/mixti ... ation.html) and then try re-installing Mixtikl. This is just in case for some reason you have an old plugin that is not being over-written with a Mixtikl install.

NB: What I may do in the next couple of days is change the "missing plugin" message to give a failsafe option (for cases such as this where we cannot figure out why it is not working) where we provide the mixtikl URL that you can then copy to the clipboard and import into Mixtikl desktop.

Hi Henry. There is not much I can do about this, as it works fine for me with Firefox so I cannot replicate your issue. . The only time I have ever seen anything similar was after I upgraded to OSX Lion and Firefox did not seem to recognise that the browser plugin was installed, so I removed the plugins from the relevant directories under Mac/Hard Disk/Library/ (I have just updated the removal instructions to make this clear: http://www.intermorphic.com/tools/mixti ... ation.html), then re-installed and it worked. My guess at the time was that the plugin might USED to have been installed under ~/Library/ and removing from there did not fix it, it was only when I removed from Hard Disk/Library/ etc (as above instructions) that it worked again. Maybe you might try that and see if that fixes it for you?
